How fast can you reach my Glasnevin home for an emergency leak?

Call with your Glasnevin address and where the leak is showing. On roofs near mature trees, blocked gutters can contribute to water entry as well as damaged slates or flashing. We confirm availability and safe access, then investigate the cause before agreeing the repair.

Can you provide references from other Glasnevin customers?

Start with our published project photographs and descriptions to see the work and where it was carried out. Ask us about comparable repairs when requesting your quote. If a customer reference would help you decide, we can discuss one with that customer's permission.

Roof Problems We Fix Daily Across Glasnevin

Glasnevin's unique position in Dublin means your roofs face specific weather challenges. We've been fixing roofs across your area for years and understand exactly what Glasnevin properties need.

Here are the most common roofing issues we're called out to fix in Glasnevin:

Emergency Roof Leaks: Whether it's failed flashing around your chimney, cracked tiles, or worn seals around roof penetrations - leaks are what most Glasnevin homeowners ring us about first.
Storm-Damaged Tiles: Irish winter storms love to lift tiles off Glasnevin roofs! Missing, cracked, or slipped tiles leave your roof vulnerable and need sorting quickly.
Blocked or Damaged Gutters: Glasnevin's tree coverage means gutters get blocked with leaves and debris, leading to overflow and potential roof damage if not addressed quickly.
Chimney Problems: Old mortar, cracked chimney pots, or failed flashing around chimneys - these cause some of the worst leaks we see in Glasnevin homes.
Loose Ridge Tiles: The ridge tiles along your roof's peak take the worst of the weather and often work loose, creating entry points for wind and rain.

Why Choose Secure Top Roofing for Glasnevin Roof Repairs?

We are a fully insured roofing company, with public liability cover in place for residential and commercial roofing work across Dublin.

Moss, Gutter & Tree-Canopy Specialists
Glasnevin's mature trees from the Botanic Gardens, Glasnevin Cemetery and the canal walk drop a lot of debris. We clear gutters properly (vacuumed, not brushed), soft-wash moss off slate and tile without damaging the surface, and install gutter mesh on the runs that need it.
Period Slate & Lead Valley Work
The Victorian and Edwardian houses along Botanic Avenue and Botanic Road need hand-cut natural slate and code 4/5 lead — not concrete imitation and mastic. We stock both and lay them the way they were originally specified, including matching ridge tiles where the originals are sound.
Inter-War Tile Re-Roof Experience
Glasnevin Hill, Iona Park and the streets around Bertram Court were built in the 1930s and 40s with concrete tiles now at end-of-life. We've stripped, re-felted, re-battened and re-tiled dozens of these roofs — and we know exactly what's under the tiles before we lift the first one.

Roof and Drainage Details Checked Together
Repairing slates while leaving a blocked valley or gutter can leave the original problem unresolved. We assess the affected roof and drainage details together, giving Glasnevin homeowners a repair plan that addresses the water route.
5-Star Google Rated, Established 2017
Established 2017 with 650+ Dublin roofs serviced since — including heritage and inter-war jobs across Glasnevin — and 5-star Google rated. Fully insured, with a 10-year workmanship guarantee on every job.
Written Quote With Photos
Every Glasnevin quote comes with photos from the inspection, materials by grade, and a fixed total. If we find rot under perished felt — common on inter-war roofs — we stop, show you, and agree the addition in writing first.

Common Questions About Glasnevin Roof Repairs

Yes. The mature tree canopy across Botanic Avenue, Botanic Road, Mobhi Road and the streets around Glasnevin Cemetery means gutter clearing and moss treatment are among our most common Glasnevin call-outs. We clear gutters and downpipes properly (vacuumed, not just brushed off the eaves), soft-wash moss off slate and tile, and install gutter mesh on the runs that need it most. Done once a year, it prevents the soakaway leaks behind the fascia that nobody notices until the bedroom ceiling stains.

Two distinct property types, two different problems. The Victorian and Edwardian houses along Botanic Avenue and Botanic Road need natural slate repair, lead valley work, and complex chimney stack repointing. The inter-war housing on Glasnevin Hill, Iona Park and around Bertram Court was built in the 1930s and 40s with concrete tiles that are now well past 70 years old — slipping, perished, and approaching full strip-and-re-lay. The tree canopy adds moss and gutter blockage to both.

The quote covers the inspection with photos, scope of work, materials specified by type and grade (slate type or tile profile, breathable underlay, lead code, mortar mix), scaffolding or roof access, labour, debris removal, and the 10-year workmanship guarantee. On moss-and-gutter jobs we note the treatment, the gutter mesh spec where used, and what's not included (e.g. tree pruning is the homeowner's call) so there are no surprises.
